RoseWind [281]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

78% nitrogen

Explanation:

It has been long agreed upon that our atmosphere is highly abundant with nitrogen. Our atmosphere is composed of  78% nitrogen and then other gases follow such as 21% oxygen, 0.9% argon, and 0.03% carbon dioxide with very small percentages of other elements.

What is the correct name for Au3N?
Reptile [31]

Answer:

option D= Gold (I) nitride

Explanation:

The name of the given compound is gold(I) nitride.

Molar mass can be determine by following way:

molar mass Au3N = (molar mass of gold × 3) + (molar mass of nitrogen)

molar mass Au3N = (196.97 × 3 ) + ( 14 )

molar mass of Au3N =  590.91 g/mol + 14 g/mol

molar mass of Au3N = 604.91 g/mol

The nitrogen has valency of -3 so three Au(+1) will require while the valency of Au is (1+) one nitrogen will require to make the compound overall neutral.

Au3N

3(1+) + (-3) = 0

+3 - 3 = 0

0 = 0

The overall charge is 0, the compound will be neutral.

A sample of an unknown metal has a mass of 58.932g. it has been heated to 101.00 degrees C, then dropped quickly into 45.20 mL o
yaroslaw [1]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

0.111 J/g°C

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

We are given;

  • Mass of the unknown metal sample as 58.932 g
  • Initial temperature of the metal sample as 101°C
  • Final temperature of metal is 23.68 °C
  • Volume of pure water = 45.2 mL

But, density of pure water = 1 g/mL

  • Therefore; mass of pure water is 45.2 g
  • Initial temperature of water = 21°C
  • Final temperature of water is 23.68 °C
  • Specific heat capacity of water = 4.184 J/g°C

We are required to determine the specific heat of the metal;

<h3>Step 1: Calculate the amount of heat gained by pure water</h3>

Q = m × c × ΔT

For water, ΔT = 23.68 °C - 21° C

                       = 2.68 °C

Thus;

Q = 45.2 g × 4.184 J/g°C × 2.68°C

    = 506.833 Joules

<h3>Step 2: Heat released by the unknown metal sample</h3>

We know that, Q =  m × c × ΔT

For the unknown metal, ΔT = 101° C - 23.68 °C

                                              = 77.32°C

Assuming the specific heat capacity of the unknown metal is c

Then;

Q = 58.932 g × c × 77.32°C

   = 4556.62c Joules

<h3>Step 3: Calculate the specific heat capacity of the unknown metal sample</h3>
  • We know that, the heat released by the unknown metal sample is equal to the heat gained by the water.
  • Therefore;

4556.62c Joules = 506.833 Joules

c = 506.833 ÷4556.62

  = 0.111 J/g°C

Thus, the specific heat capacity of the unknown metal is 0.111 J/g°C
